Greg, the ALTO working group has been chartered to standardize a protocol for carrying information related to the physical network, and that has really nothing to do with the pieces of content some applications running on top of such a network may or may not decide to exchange. Not for some philosophical reasons, but just because separation of very different problems -- like network proximity and content legality enforcement are -- is generally considered essential from an engineering point of view. This of course does not mean that there is no room in the IETF for working on content issues, but I really don't see how the ALTO WG could the venue for that. -- Ciao, Enrico
